Success in Business and Life

Getting Your Act Together presents common-sense, professionally and personally-tested, theatrical techniques designed to revitalize employees and generate award-winning performances that directly impact and increase customer loyalty, employee satisfaction and most importantly sales and profits. The reader will learn how to use these --theatrical techniques and tools to put the “show” into business. It examines many of the skills that are needed to be successful in business and life, while providing “actionable” acting techniques the reader can immediately apply. It is a refreshing new way to address important business skills. The end result generates standing ovations from prospects, customers, employees and employers.

After over 25 years in theater and having been lucky enough to experience the euphoria that comes with applause for a job well done, Barbara Turino’s Getting Your Act Together helps the reader to understand—indeed, experience—this incredible feeling. Even if you never get on a theatrical stage, your journey through this book will allow you to see how the emotional highs and lows of performing on stage contrast with your “performances” in your professional life and personal life.

Learning and practicing the techniques that an actor uses to be successful on stage can help motivate you to become a true performer, enjoying the success, the newfound meaning, and, yes, the ovations that can come with that. Getting Your Act Together teaches how to use the skills the actor uses on your own stage – the stage of life.
